President Bush Pardons HIMSELF against Potential Warcrimes - WTF?!
Play
Funny - I recently had to explain the problem with this concept to our 4 year old after she hit her sister in the head with a stick and thought "sorry" made everything okay. - Jonathan Beckett
Um, wow. What do you say to that? - Charlie Nichols Browning
Yup... This is sad. - Greg Wilker
damn, that's some hard hitting media vs. some (more) messed up bullshit - Marshall Kirkpatrick
funny too because ppl are saying, doesn't matter because he didn't do anything wrong. uh, then there is no need for this at all... - Chris Harris
Guess we should hit him up while he's passing these out eh? - devnet
man. how is that possible. that is like a truck with a "not responsible for windshield damage" sticker - Dan London
Why are you just discovering this now? This happened a year and a half ago! - Adam Turetzky
If I click "Like", does that imply that I approve of this? - Jeff Woelker
<aol>WTF</aol> - Brian Sullivan
wake up... it will pass and it should. these men have not allowed one terrorist attack since 9/11. waterboard em I don't give a damn. out the nipple clips on Osama's henchmen. - Noah David Simon
It's possible because people let him get away with it. - Steve Lynch from Alert Thingy
ultimate for of CYA!! well, wouldn't you if you were him lol - Aronado
wow, just.....wow. - Matt Hartley
Yeah, it happened a while ago - but... jeez. IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN. - l0ckergn0me
wtf. Wtf. WTf. WTF. WTF! - AJ Kohn
Wow... just wow. Clicking 'Like' just doesn't seem to be fitting. FF needs another option methinks... Anyway, this is disgraceful. - Jamie Clark
now let's see WHO in the Senate actually votes for this. Who's for change ? - Andrew MacNeill from twhirl
The bill passed, like 9 months ago, something like 406-6. It's law. Weren't you all calling your Senators when this was up for the vote last fall? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... - Adam Turetzky
Sorry, wrong bill, although that one is equally as bad. Here's the one they're referring to in the video http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin...& - Adam Turetzky
And here's who voted for and against it http://www.senate.gov/legisla... - Adam Turetzky
It seems USA is truly heading towards being a totalitarian state - Brian Sullivan
Technically, it is Congress giving Bush a pardon he wrote and inserted in a bill. But he won't escape international prosecution because of this. - Mitch Ratcliffe from twhirl
So is this like asking for forgiveness for something he may or may not do now, or in the future or may have done in the p... oh, damn! I've gone crossed eyed! - Zulema ◕ ◡ ◕
This is so messed up - ian
Seems like this came out in January... wonder what happened to the bill... - Brenda McLaren
WTF!?! - AJ Batac
caffertyfile@cnn.com <- Don't let someone go away just like that. - AJ Batac
Where does responsibility end? Congress voted for the things he's being potentially accused of, as well. Do they get punished for war-crimes? What about the faulty intelligence gatherers? What about folks like Gore and the Clintons, who also supported the Iraqi war? What about the folks who voted for the folks who voted for this war? It's easy to pick on the President because he's a retard, but that doesn't make it sporting. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins
Good point, Mark. On the other hand, giving this administration's penchant for torture, illegal extraditions, etc. there may have been some war crimes the administration engaged in that Congress did not approve. - Steve Lynch
No, that's not a point, it's a slippery slope. Last time I checked, Mark, going to war or being a retard wasn't against the law. Torture is. And Congress had nothing to do with its institution as the preferred method for gathering intelligence, taking as models the Viet Kong and the Gestapo. It was an unconstitutional expansion of executive power. In my view, they are fascists. - Rick Powell
